Artist of the Day, October 27, 2022: Sasha Korban, an Ukrainian artist, muralist (#1684)

Sasha Korban (1987), was born in Kirovske of Donetsk Region, Ukraine. In 2006-2011 he worked as a miner at the mine “Komsomolets Donbasu”.

For the first time he tried to create street art as far back as in 2002. But he thinks that the start of his conscious work on the street as a graffiti artist was in 2009. Afterwards he was fond of creation of portraits with spray paints on canvas and also interior and exterior design. Peculiarity of his creative work is representation of “characters” (pictures), namely portraits and not fonts.

His works are characterized with an entwinement of styles and different techniques (Photorealism, Pop Art, decorative painting, expressive conceptualism, spray, oil, acrylic paints, etc.). He participated in the graffiti festivals: Newton Street Degustation (Kharkiv, 2010), Space Jam (Mykolaiv, 2011), Yalta Summer Jam (Yalta, 2011, 2012, 2013), KeramoGraffiti Fest (Оpishnia, Poltavshyna, 2013, 2014). In August 2014 he moved to Kyiv. In parallel with graffiti works he started to create easel works for galleries.

  1. I think this art is incredible. I hope the war does not damage them--that would be a loss that would be huge.
